SHOES, SHOES, SHOES

I guess you could say I’m kind of an addict when it comes to buying shoes. Well, an addict to any kind of shopping really! Money burns a hole in my pocket, which bites the big one when it comes to budgeting. Barely surviving paycheck to paycheck with a near empty account come Sunday of the non-pay week. Forcing myself to survive on buttered bread and Kraft Dinner if it means I can afford the new peep toe platform from Jeffrey Campbell’s 2011 Spring Collection.

I’ve never been good at spending money practically and have always spent an excessive amount on useless and very materialistic things, unlike my very practical and economical friend Summerr-yes, two ‘R’s. Though she, like me, is definitely a Material Girl, she’s always been much smarter about it. More aware of the budget she had to keep. I, on the other hand, never think past the purchase. Although, I usually only ever shop with companies that share a similar return policy- something I like to call ‘Buy Now Decide Later’. This policy has saved me so many times from silly impulse buys or from getting my cell phone shut off for over usage on my account- I also like to talk a lot, obviously.

Working at Stoneridge has not helped one bit when it comes to my addiction. The only thing that does help is getting a generous discount on my favorite brands and designers and being able to share that discount with the selected few I love the most. ---Don’t get too excited, readers! I have a limit to my discount and have to be extremely selective when it comes to sharing it. Nothing personal! ;)

Anyway, I won’t ramble on any further. Here are the pictures of my most wonderful new buys- as promised. Say hello to Jeffrey Campbell, Michael Kors, Cowboy babies and yes of course my very-affordable-on-a-budget-vivienne-westwood-immitation-chinatown-gelly-sandal:


Thanks for reading!
